"On their free days, there are many good men who look back to the past and look at the present. They have the ability to deal with dangers with great wisdom. But it is not only men who have the ability to do so, women also have the ability to do so."

"Tiying saving her father is rare in history, and it is even rarer to join the army in her father's place. The extraordinary woman we are going to talk about today is the young mistress of the Fang family, the daughter of the loyal and righteous Lord Yingwen, Miss Jun."

The teahouse was full of people. They ate the food on the table while looking at the stage. The waiters were walking around with teapots in their hands. Because it was a new book, they raised their heads from time to time to listen.

Miss Jun is no stranger to the people of Yuyang City. She is truly an extraordinary woman.

Since arriving in Yangcheng, this Miss Jun has added countless fun and topics of conversation to everyone's lives, especially the people related to her are also people that the people of Yangcheng are familiar with and most willing to talk about.

"…Miss Jun finally met Mr. Ning Shi during the Lantern Festival on August 15th. She was truly astonished by the sight of him. From then on, she was overwhelmed with longing for him and wrote countless poems…"

The storyteller folded his folding fan, pretended to be a shy and thoughtful girl, and picked up his pen to write a poem.

"There is a lamp in the east, and a lamp in the west. I wish I could be the lamp under the moon, shining on the beautiful woman's head."

There was a burst of laughter in the teahouse.

…

With a bang, Madam Ning slammed the table again.

The maid who was narrating stopped talking.

Madam Ning San and Madam Ning Si also stopped laughing.

"What a disgusting thing! Why is she talking about it like this? She is not ashamed, but Yun Zhao is the one who is ashamed." Madam Ning said with a cold face.

Madam Ning San coughed lightly.

"Really? The Fang family is trying to divert attention by bringing up such a thing. This is their daughter-in-law, isn't it shameful?" She said with contempt.

"You can say whatever you want about their family affairs, why involve other people?" Mrs. Ning Si also said angrily.

"Master, if they continue like this and drag us Yun Zhao down, that won't do." Madam Ning said. She looked at Master Ning.

Master Ning's expression remained the same. He raised his hand to signal the maid.

"Go on, I want to hear what the Fang family has to say about this extraordinary woman," he said.

The maid replied, and timidly glanced at Madam Ning. Madam Ning closed her eyes and ignored her, so the maid continued to speak.

Miss Jun's previous absurd behavior was not unusual, it was nothing more than those caused by the excitement during the engagement, such as hanging herself and going to the government office to make trouble.

These events were made even more exaggerated by the storyteller, causing bursts of laughter in the teahouse.

"Hey, hey. That's not right. That's not right." Someone responded with a smile, patting his companion, "This is making fun of the Fang family's young mistress. The Fang family has an imperial decree now, how can this be allowed!"

My companions also responded.

"Yeah, this is a bit too much." He said, looking a bit panicked, "The Fang family was killed at the order of the county. We must not be implicated."

As the thought passed, the laughter in the hall gradually died down, and only the storyteller's high-pitched and shrill voice echoed in the hall, which seemed a bit weird.

This scene is somewhat familiar.

Not long ago, when Miss Jun was still a joke and the Fang family was just a wealthy merchant in Yangcheng, the most feared force in Yangcheng, the Jinyiwei, in order to celebrate their biggest backer in the capital, Lu Qianhu, gathered a group of storytellers in restaurants and teahouses to announce the marriage of Lu Qianhu and Princess Jiuli.

Those who wanted everyone to congratulate and were not brave enough to express their joy would encounter inexplicable but logical misfortunes afterwards.

This time, it seems that everyone wants to celebrate and rejoice over the past of the young lady of the Fang family.

Madam Fang's past is not all that glorious.

It is not a good intention for a woman's ridiculous past to be brought up in a speech.

So is this the intention of the Fang family or the Jinyi Guard?

Should they rejoice or sympathize? This is really a question.

…

"If that's what the Imperial Guard meant, then it means that the higher-ups are dissatisfied with the other family's behavior." Master Ning knocked on the table and spoke slowly.

The maid stopped again and stood quietly in the room, listening to what Master Ning said.

Madam Ning Da, Madam Ning San, and Madam Ning Si all showed some joy on their faces.

"However, my second brother has not conveyed this intention." Master Ning frowned again and said.

"The actions of those people from the Jinyiwei are shameful to begin with. It's normal that Second Uncle doesn't know about it." Madam Ning said.

Master Ning did not respond and pondered for a moment.

"If it's not the Jinyiwei's intention, then it's the Fang family's intention." He said, "The Fang family..."

He tapped the table.

"The Fang family doesn't want this Madam Fang anymore, right?"

Ning Yunyan, who had been standing aside as obediently and docilely as if she didn't exist, suddenly lit up her eyes.

That vicious and despicable Jun Zhenzhen, is she finally going to be kicked out by the Fang family and thrown away like a used rag?

…

"It turned out that Miss Jun was in a state of panic and was hanged in the inn by a rope. Fortunately, she was found in time and saved."

"Mrs. Fang came and hugged Miss Jun and cried. I lost my husband, son, and daughter. You and Chengyu are the only two bloodlines left. Chengyu cannot live. You don't want to live."

"Forget it, forget it. Fate is not determined by heaven but by man. I accept the fate of the old to send off the young. If you want to die, go ahead. You cannot enter the Ning family's door while alive. When you die, I will send you to the Ning family's grave."

The storyteller stood on the high platform like an old woman beating her chest and stamping her feet, pouring out her heart to the sky, feeling helpless and sad.

Even though the audience was silent and nervous, they couldn't help but feel a little sad.

It is indeed the saddest thing in the world for the elderly to see their loved ones die, and it is also the most painful thing in the world for those who want to live to be unable to live, and those who can live not to want to live.

Old Mrs. Fang encountered both sorrow and pain, which was so unfortunate that she couldn't express it in words.

But it is obvious that this feeling of grief is often only felt by people who have nothing to do with oneself. For example, for Madam Ning, not only is there no grief at all, but only anger.

"What do you mean by burying her in my Ning family's grave after she dies?" She raised her eyebrows and said angrily, "When will it be her turn to make decisions in my Ning family?"

"It may not be impossible." Master Ning said, "The Fang family has an imperial decree."

It was impossible to raid the Ning family's house with an imperial edict, but it was not impossible to force the Ning family to accept a marriage proposal with an imperial edict.

After all, the engagement was real.

Madam Ning was speechless and took the fan and shook it vigorously.

"What else? What did you say?" She looked at the maid and said, her usually gentle voice became a little anxious.

"Then came Mrs. Fang's sobbing. Miss Jun, who had just returned from the underworld, suddenly came to her senses after hearing it. She thought of her deceased parents and her only relative in the world, her grandmother. So she gave up her obsession and stopped bothering the Ning family." The maid said, "Then she decided to marry her cousin Fang Chengyu, making the relationship even closer, fulfilling the wishes of her grandmother and aunt, and also bringing happiness to her cousin."

"And then?" Madam Ning sneered, "It is said that good deeds are rewarded and God has opened his eyes. The Fang family has turned from bad to good, the great revenge has been taken, and Master Fang has recovered from his illness. Is this all due to Miss Jun's surprise?"

"After all this talk, they are still extolling how blessed the Fang family is, how many merits and good fortunes they have." Madam Ning San also said with a smile, "Why bother with so much effort? If you give out half of your wealth and let Monk Nianzhi directly say that the Fang family is the reincarnation of a star blessed by the gods, wouldn't it be more convincing?"

"It's really ridiculous." Madam Ning laughed while fanning herself, "I think the Fang family has gone crazy."
